Here’s a real treat. Something from Lionel Richie.
For as great as a singer he was, there are not very many live recordings available.
I had forgotten how many radio hits this guy had until I got a chance to listen to this.
I was familiar with almost every song. And the sound quality is really good. I really enjoyed getting to hear this.
I got the whole set list figured out except for track 12 was a mystery. I’m not sure what it’s called.
One of the highlights during the show having a duet with Diana Ross.
For some reason, the last song cuts off early. Though there was six or seven minutes left of blank tape
I’m not sure how many songs were missing at the end but either way this is a great discovery for the fans.

Additionally, Lionel Richie had a very popular tour of the United States in 1986 and then traveled to other countries during the 1987 tour. After that, he just kind of disappeared for 10 years and stopped performing so this is basically his biggest tour from the 80s.
On this night it was the second of two shows at Richfield Coliseum.

Incidentally, the Commodores also toured in 1986 and 1987.
